This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled crypto: x86/aes-ni - add missing error checks in XTS code to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: crypto-x86-aes-ni-add-missing-error-checks-in-xts-co.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 766975526cd2b9c99375c6534ca3fefffd5965d1 Author: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jul 16 18:54:03 2021 +0200 crypto: x86/aes-ni - add missing error checks in XTS code [ Upstream commit 821720b9f34ec54106ebf012a712ba73bbcf47c2 ] The updated XTS code fails to check the return code of skcipher_walk_virt, which may lead to skcipher_walk_abort() or skcipher_walk_done() being called while the walk argument is in an inconsistent state. So check the return value after each such call, and bail on errors.
